Jaipur, July 18 -- Union home minister Amit Shah on Thursday said India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has sent a clear and powerful message to the world - that any attempt to harm its citizens will invite strong retaliation. He also lauded chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma for forming a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to curb paper leaks in the state. Referring to Operation Sindoor carried out to destroy terrorist camps in Pakistan after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, Shah said: "Prime Minister Narendra Modi has done the biggest job of securing the country. A strong message has gone out to the world that no one should mess with India's citizens and anyone who dares to do so has to face consequences." Shah, who is also minister for cooperation, was in Jaipur to attend an event organised on the occasion of International Cooperatives Year-2025. He said that during Congress rule, the country had to face terrorist attacks quite often. "When Uri attack occurred, Modi took decisive action and a surgical strike was carried out. Following the Pulwama attack, an airstrike was done and when an attack took place in Pahalgam, Operation Sindoor was launched, targeting terrorists within Pakistan and eliminating them," he said. "Through these, Modi has conveyed a powerful message to the world that India's citizens, armed forces, and borders should not be messed with. Anyone who dares to do so has to face consequences," he said. Shah said that Modi has turned the vision of a prosperous, secure and developed India into a reality and brought a dream on the ground. "Under Modi's leadership, the country has become the fourth largest economy in the world and 22 crore (220 million) people have been lifted above the poverty line." Praising Bhajan Lal Sharma-led BJP government, Shah said that the government has done remarkable work in a short period of time. "Rajasthan was suffering due to paper leaks. By forming an SIT, the Bhajan Lal government has sent a strong message to the paper leak mafia," he said. He said that under the leadership of Bhajan Lal Sharma, Rajasthan signed MoUs worth Rs.35 lakh crore during an investment summit and work has already commenced on MoUs worth 3 lakh crore. "The BJP government in the state decreased VAT on petrol and diesel and several other initiatives were taken."...
